second query unit 32, connected to thefirst query unit 31, configured to query thefirst storage module 1 according to the screen ID selected by the user so as to obtain corresponding screen parameter information upon receiving the second query result, and configured to output a third query result according to the screen parameter information, wherein the query result is the first query result or the third query result. - In this embodiment, the screen parameter configuration system has a
debugging module 6. When the screen configuration file stored in the screen parameter configuration system does not meet the needs of the user, the user is provided with the corresponding screen parameters to be modified. Thedebugging module 6 displays the modifiable parameter items in the corresponding screen parameter information to the user according to the screen ID selected by the user, and the user can modify the corresponding parameter items as desired, and the modified parameter items and the corresponding screen ID are additionally stored in thePowerShadow Master 15 as the screen parameter debugging information, and the existing parameter configuration files in the screen parameter configuration system are not modified. The user selects the corresponding screen ID through theselection module 2, and thefirst query module 31 of the parsemodule 3 reads the parameter items modified by the user from thePowerShadow Master 15 according to the corresponding screen ID, and the operation system drives the screen according to the read parameter items, such that the user can view the display effect of the screen when using the current screen parameters, and the user can debug again to get the required screen parameter information. - In the above-mentioned technical solution, the parameter configuration file exists in a text format, and the staff who is not able to program can also understand the parameter configuration file, which can be operated to set the screen parameters. In addition, modification of some parameter items in the screen parameters may cause the screen to not be displayed, if the user modifies those parameter items, the screen would not be displayed, and the screen parameters cannot be set any more. Therefore, the parameter items affecting the normal display of the screen are not displayed in the
debugging module 6 to avoid misoperation in the process of setting the screen parameters. - In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the above-mentioned screen parameter configuration system further comprises:
- an
extraction module 7, connected to theselection module 2, and configured to extract the corresponding screen parameter debugging information from thePowerShadow Master 15 according to the screen ID selected by the user; - a copy module 8, connected to the
selection module 2 and thefirst storage module 1, configured to search the corresponding screen configuration information from thefirst storage module 1 according to the screen ID selected by the user and to copy the screen configuration information searched out by the user; and - a modifying
module 9, connected to the copy module 8 and theextraction module 7, configured to obtain the copied screen configuration information and to modify the copied screen configuration information according to the screen parameter debugging information, and configured to configure the modified screen configuration information with a new screen ID to obtain new screen configuration information. - In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the above-mentioned screen parameter configuration system further comprises:
- an update module 11, connected to the
first storage module 1 and the modifyingmodule 9, and configured to update the new screen configuration information in the screen configuration file. - In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the above-mentioned screen parameter configuration system further comprises:
- a
generation module 12, connected to thefirst storage module 1, and configured to generate an incremental upgrade package according to the new screen configuration information; and - an
export module 13, connected to thegeneration module 12, and configured to export the incremental upgrade package operated by the user. - In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the above-mentioned screen parameter configuration system further comprises:
- an
upgrade module 14, connected to thefirst storage module 1, configured to receive the incremental upgrade package, and configured to upgrade the operation system by using the incremental upgrade package, and configured to add the new screen configuration information to the screen configuration file. - In this embodiment, after the user obtains the desired screen parameters through the
debugging module 6, theextraction module 7 extracts corresponding screen parameter debugging information (comprising the screen ID and the parameter items modified by the corresponding user) from thePowerShadow Master 15 according to the screen ID selected by the user. The copy module 8 copies the corresponding screen parameter information from thefirst storage module 1 according to the screen ID selected by the user, and the screen parameter information is modified according to the parameter items in the screen parameter debugging information. Then the modified screen parameter information is provided with a new screen ID to obtain new screen configuration information, finally, the new screen configuration information is updated into the new screen configuration file. - Furthermore, the incremental upgrade package is generated by the
generation module 12 according to the new screen configuration information and is exported through theexport module 13. The exported incremental upgrade package can upgrade the operation system of all the smart TV hosts on the production line to update the screen configuration files within the Smart TV hosts. Since the above incremental upgrade packages only contain one piece or more pieces of screen configuration information, its capacity is small, and upgrading the operation system by using the incremental upgrade package can be completed quickly. - Furthermore, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the above-mentioned screen parameter configuration system further comprises:
- an
edit module 10, connected to the upgrade module 11, and configured to edit the screen configuration information for the user. - If the user is able to edit the screen configuration information directly according to a corresponding user guide, the existing screen configuration information can be modified without using the
debugging module 6 to obtain new screen configuration information, and the required screen configuration information can be directly edited by using theedit module 10. - The above descriptions are only the preferred embodiments of the invention, not thus limiting the embodiments and scope of the invention. Those skilled in the art should be able to realize that the schemes obtained from the content of specification and drawings of the invention are within the scope of the invention.
